Chattanooga Choo Choo

From the Movie «Sun Valley Serenade»
Harry Warren, Mack Gordon

Pardon me, boy
Is that the Chattanooga choo choo?
Track twenty-nine
Boy, you can gimme a shine
I can afford
To board a Chattanooga choo choo
Ive got my fare
And just a trifle to spare
You leave the Pennsylvania Station bout a quarter to four
Read a magazine and then youre in Baltimore
Dinner in the diner
Nothing could be finer
Than to have your ham an eggs in Carolina
When you hear the whistle blowin eight to the bar
Then you know that Tennessee is not very far
Shovel all the coal in
Gotta keep it rollin
Woo, woo, Chattanooga there you are
Theres gonna be
A certain party at the station
Satin and lace
I used to call «funny face»
Shes gonna cry
Until I tell her that Ill never roam
So Chattanooga choo choo
Wont you choo-choo me home?
Chattanooga choo choo
Wont you choo-choo me home?
1941
